∙ 12y agoThe most famous Yankees player ever to wear this number is probably the great Phil Rizzuto, otherwise known as the Scooter. He wore it 1941-1942 and 1946-1956. It was the only number he wore. Both Tony Kubek and Chris Chambliss wore it after him. Bill Dickey wore it in his first full season in 1929.
The Yankees retired the #10 in 1985 in honor of Phil Rizzuto.

The first baseball team to use numbers on uniforms was the 1916 Cleveland Indians when they wore small numbers on the sleeves of their uniforms, as a way of identifying the players. This practice was short lived.in 1929 the New York Yankees decided to wear numbers to the backs of their jerseys. The numbers corresponded to each player's general position in the lineup.for example Babe Ruth wore No. 3, since he usually batted third, and Lou Gehrig wore No. 4 as he batted fourth.High unifrom numbers arehanded out to rookies, and players that most likely will not make the team out of spring training. Number 68 is more of a number handed out to a football player. The Yankees have retired a lot of numbers but, it could be a real long time before they get to 68. Here is a list of Yankee players that wore uniform number 68. * Brad Arnsberg * Russ Springer * Charlie Sands * Dioner Navarro (2004)
